Hi. > I want to see why it returns an io error when I tried to create an AP and > an Sta on the same card. === cut === Only one station VAP can exist on a device. If the station VAP is the first VAP created, then no other VAPs are allowed to be created. If the first VAP created is in AP (Master) mode, then one station VAP is allowed to be created. In this case, other AP VAPs can also be created after the station VAP. When AP and station VAPs coexist, the nosbeacon flag must be used when creating the station. This flag disables the use of hardware beacon timers for station mode operation. This is necessary because concurrent AP and station operation implies the station should not modify the TSF clock for the APs.
